Sorry if this has been asked before.....

At the end scene, after Mike beats Teddy KGB, Grandma is visibly upset. He takes a chair and flips it upsidedown in anger. Why is he so mad? The way I understood it, was that he was still getting his $15,000, its just that Teddy had just lost a bunch of money. But Grandma didn't lose any money did he? He was still to get his money, which he was getting a great percentage of('I got a really sweet deal. Theres not a lot of faith in you', he said to Worm earlier). Moreover, Grandma kinda liked Mike, so he wouldn't really be any more loyal to KGB than to Mike. So why was he so upset?

Funny, that bothered me too (not enough to post abou it though [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]). The way I see it Gramma should be jumping for joy because he gets his money. (As opposed to what was stated earlier in this thread the mob is all about money, not pride or sh1t like that.) Then if he really wanted he could walk outside, and kick Mike's ass anyway and take the money he left the club with.

I don't mean to be a jerk, but this is driving nuts!!!!

Grandma= Sweet little old lady who bakes cookies and gives birthday gifts.

Grama= Tough street thug in Rounder who wants to kill Worm and beat Mike McD senseless.

Good luck guys,

Fitz

seriously, get over it.
didn't you catch the irony in the movie of having the tough street thug have a nickname like 'grandma'?
